None of the rooms appear to fit in the actual halls. I would call this engineering clever, but whoever is responsible for the rooms of unusual size is also responsible for the ease at which dangerous Inmates can escape from their keepers.

There is no proper control over the Inmates. Why are they placed in cells that they may so easily leave?

The rooms do indeed seem to take on a... transdimensional quality, don't they? [Now you've done it. He's going to be SCIENCING for a while, because a ship full of TARDIS rooms? Hell yeah.]

And it's a bit more complicated than that, actually. While they leave their rooms, they don't often get the chance to leave the vessel itself, barring extreme circumstances or warden supervision... usually. Even so, there are places on the ship itself they may not access with the consent of another party- again, usually a warden.

You say this in ignorance of the people that have been threatened or harmed in the last few days.

[a_bit_put_upon]

Pardon me; I've just got done being dead, actually, and I seem to have been gone for some time before that. I'm still bringing myself up to speed, as it were.

That aside, harm and threat are disgustingly commonplace here. Would that I could instill the idealism I'm often accused of in everyone aboard, but... there's little point in the attempt when all it accomplishes, time and time again, is apathy and ridicule.

You're better off devising methods of bringing about safety, and seeing about enlisting others in the methods themselves, than addressing the issue openly. Horses are better led by reins than words.

[nehraa_beresaad]

These are all very weak-willed people.

I have recommended containment before, and was informed that this was a rehabilitation vessel rather than a prison ship. I suppose he leaves it up to us to decide how to govern inmates without wardens, though no one can agree on a standard form of unification and assistance.

In short, there is little that can be done.

[Yeah, this place? Finally broke his sense of cooperative realism.]

[nehraa_beresaad]

Then the Wardens must formally organize and choose a leader. Even if they are simply single leaders among groups of people.

[empirical_data]

You are former military as well?

They will not consent to this. Any attempts at organization are inevitably met with disdain and and conflict.

[nehraa_beresaad]

Not former. Current.

And it matters not. They would either learn or they would be gone.

[charmedandperky]

So we can worry about them killing people, quickens our redemption work.

You got a specific inmate you want locked up, or is this a general 'God, idiots, stop this from happening again!' statement, because I can help with the former but only agree with the latter.

[nehraa_beresaad]

I do not address any form of deity in my entry.

[charmedandperky]

Yes, because that's the point.

He gets hung up on colloquialisms.

[nehraa_beresaad]

The latter.

[failedcreator]

This unnatural engineering concerns me also. I had assumed it was an affect of the lightning within the walls.

[darknessb4me]

I agree. No warden or inmate is really safe here. Granted the inmates have no access to the outside world, but that only concentrates the acts of violence on the staff.
